Why do I feel like I am giving a part of myself up by quitting? I know that sounds stupid but I have smoked since I was 12 and I am now 54. I truly want to quit for my health and my family. I am very anxious and I am 1 week away from my quit date.

Because quitting has been a part of your life for a long time.  We have been brainwashed that we have to smoke and we don't.  Once you relearn, rethink your behavior you will be fine.  Read Allen Carr's Book Easy Way to quit smoking.  It is not easy but easier.  Stay close here and read learn and prepare. Go to http://www.becomeanex.org/my-quit-plan.php and get started if you haven't already.
